Description

Technical Field

[0005] ,

[0001] The present invention relates to a connection structure of reinforcing members used in frameworks such as retaining timbers and temporary trestles.

Background Art

[0002] For the construction of retaining timbers and temporary trestles, a framework structure mainly made of H-shaped steel is used. In the assembly of the framework structure, end plates are provided at the ends of the H-shaped steel, and holes for passing bolts are drilled at specified positions on the upper and lower flanges and end plates of the H-shaped steel. For example, the retaining timber shown in Patent Document 1 describes a structure in which a first retaining timber having a first end plate and a second retaining timber having a second end plate joined facing the first end plate are joined in an inclined state.

[0003] Thus, since the first end plate and the second end plate are joined in an inclined state, the joint area becomes large, and the frictional force between the two also improves. In addition, the increase in the area of both increases the number of bolts that can be applied. Therefore, there is an advantage that the joint force between the two increases.

[0004] However, at the construction site where the framework is assembled, after driving the H-shaped steel piles, reinforcing members such as horizontal connecting members and braces (diagonal members) that connect between adjacent H-shaped steel piles are provided. And when the interval between adjacent piles is large, a driving error is likely to occur, and in order to adjust the error, it was necessary to perform operations such as gas welding or gas cutting on the reinforcing member itself. Therefore, it was necessary to introduce gas equipment to the site, and there was a problem that further improvement in safety, such as thorough safety management for the gas used, had to be achieved.

[0007] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a connecting structure for a reinforcing member connects a first reinforcing main member constituting a reinforcing member to another member, the connecting structure comprising a first member to be joined connected to the first reinforcing main member, and a connecting member connected to the other member, wherein the connecting member comprises a first inclined plate, the first inclined plate being inclined with respect to the axial direction in which the reinforcing member extends, and the first member to be joined comprising a first connecting end connected to the first reinforcing main member, a first reinforcing plate whose base end is connected to the first connecting end, and a first end plate whose base end is connected to the first connecting end and whose tip is connected to the tip of the first reinforcing plate.

[0008] The first end plate is inclined with respect to the axial direction so as to be parallel to the first inclined plate, and the first end plate has a plurality of through holes formed in it at intervals along the direction in which the first end plate extends, the first reinforcing plate extends along the axial direction, and the first reinforcing plate has a jig through hole formed in it that is larger in diameter than the through holes and coaxial with the through holes, the first inclined plate has an elongated hole, the elongated hole has a major axis along the direction in which the first inclined plate extends, and the threaded portion of a bolt inserted through the through hole passes through the elongated hole so as to be movable in the direction of the major axis and is screwed into a nut.

[0009] According to this, the bolt screwed into the first end plate can move along the direction of the major axis of the elongated hole formed in the first inclined plate. In other words, the first end plate and the first inclined plate can slide along their contact surfaces. In this way, the distance between the first reinforcing member and other members, in other words, the length of the reinforcing member, can be adjusted. Then, by fastening bolts or nuts, the first reinforcing member can be fixed to the connecting member at the adjusted position. When fastening with bolts or nuts, for example, a cylindrical jig attached to the tip of an electric impact wrench is passed through the jig's through-hole. By fastening with the jig by passing it through the jig's through-hole in this way, the work can be performed quickly and safely.

[0012] According to this, the first end plate of the first joined member and the first inclined plate of the joining member can slide along the contact surface, and the second end plate of the second joined member and the second inclined plate of the joining member can also slide along the contact surface. In this way, the length of the reinforcing member can be adjusted by adjusting the distance between the first main reinforcing member and other members in the axial direction of the reinforcing member. Since bolts or nuts are fastened using a jig that passes through the jig's through-hole, assembly work can be performed quickly and safely.

[0013] According to a third aspect of the connecting structure of the present invention, in the second connecting structure, the joining member is a V-shaped member to which the upper edge of the first inclined plate and the upper edge of the second inclined plate are connected. According to this, the connecting members form a truss structure, and an extremely strong connecting structure can be easily formed against compressive or tensile loads applied to the reinforcing members.

[0014] According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, in the second connection structure, the other member constitutes a part of the reinforcing member. According to this, the connecting structure can be connected in a way that allows for adjustment of the distance between other members that constitute part of the reinforcing member and the first main reinforcing member.

[0015] According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, in the first connection structure, reinforcing plates are fixed to both side edges of the first reinforcing plate and both side edges of the first end plate. According to this, an extremely strong connecting structure can be formed that does not deform under compressive or tensile loads applied between the first reinforcing plate and the first end plate.

[0016] According to the sixth aspect of the connecting structure of the present invention, in the fifth connecting structure, the reinforcing backing plate is provided with a guide portion that protrudes from the first end plate, and the guide portion slides against the side edge of the first inclined plate. According to this, the first end plate moves smoothly along the first inclined plate by the guide portion, and the reinforcing member can be smoothly extended and retracted.

[0017] According to the seventh aspect of the present invention, in the first connecting structure, the jig is passed through the jig hole and the bolt is fastened. According to this, bolts can be fastened using a jig by utilizing pre-formed jig holes, allowing for quick and safe assembly work.

[0018] According to the eighth aspect of the present invention, in the first connecting structure, the first end plate is shifted relative to the first inclined plate along the direction in which the first inclined plate extends, thereby adjusting the distance between the first reinforcing main member and the other members. This allows the length of the reinforcing member to be adjusted quickly and safely.

Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0022] (Embodiment) An embodiment of the connection structure of the reinforcing member used for a brace will be described below based on FIGS. 1 to 4.

[0023] In Figure 1, the horizontal direction extending from left to right is referred to as the X-axis direction, and the horizontal direction perpendicular to the X-axis direction is referred to as the Y-axis direction. In Figure 1, for the sake of explanation, the upper part of the drawing will be referred to as "top," "upper," "upper edge," etc., and the lower part of the drawing will be referred to as "bottom," "lower," "lower edge," etc.

[0024] Braces BR (see Figure 4), used as reinforcing members, are made of materials such as steel and are mainly used by being placed diagonally across columns and beams that have a quadrilateral frame. In this embodiment, the reinforcing member connecting structure 1 comprises a member to be joined 2 and a joining member 3, as shown in Figure 1. Furthermore, although the joined member 2 has a first joined member 21 and a second joined member 22, these first and second joined members 21 and 22 are similar in that they are arranged symmetrically, so the first joined member 21 will be used as a representative example for explanation. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the second joined member 22 corresponds to another member as it constitutes a part of the reinforcing member.

[0025] (1st member to be joined) The first member to be joined 21 connects the joining member 3 (described later) and the first reinforcing main member 23. The first joined member 21 comprises a first connecting end 2a1, a first end plate 2b1, a first reinforcing plate 2c1, and a first lower side plate 2d1.

[0026] The first member to be joined 21 is, for example, a plate made of iron with a predetermined width, and is formed in a trapezoidal shape with a shorter lower edge and one of its slanted edges perpendicular to the lower edge. The first end plate 2b1 is the slanted side portion of the trapezoid, the first reinforcing plate 2c1 is the upper side portion, the first connecting end 2a1 is the slanted side portion perpendicular to the first reinforcing plate 2c1, and the first lower side plate 2d1 is the shorter lower side portion. In other words, the first joined member 21 comprises a first connecting end 2a1 connected to the first reinforcing main member 23, and a first reinforcing plate 2c1 whose base end (the left end in Figure 1) is connected to one end of the first connecting end 2a1 (the upper end in Figure 1) by welding or the like. Furthermore, the first joined member 21 is provided with a first end plate 2b1 at the other end (lower end in Figure 1) of the first connecting end 2a1, the base end (left end in Figure 1) being connected via the first lower plate 2d1 by welding or the like, and the tip being connected to the tip of the first reinforcing plate 2c1 by welding or the like.

[0027] The first end plate 2b1 is parallel to the first inclined plate 31 (described later) and inclined with respect to the X-axis direction. The first end plate 2b1 has a plurality of through holes SH (three in this embodiment) that are spaced apart along the direction in which the first end plate 2b1 extends. The first reinforcing plate 2c1 extends along the axial direction, and a jig through-hole JTH, which is larger in diameter than the through-hole SH, is formed in the first reinforcing plate 2c1 coaxially with the through-hole SH. The angle formed by the first reinforcing plate 2c1 and the first end plate 2b1 is, for example, 20 degrees.

[0028] A connecting hole CH is provided at the first connecting end 2a1, and it is connected to the first reinforcing main member 23 by bolts B, nuts N, etc. The first reinforcing main member 23 is, for example, a rectangular member made of iron plate material of a predetermined width, with connecting holes CH formed at both ends (see Figure 4).

[0029] (Jointing member) The joining member 3 is a member that connects the first member to be joined 21 and the second member to be joined 22. The joining member 3 is provided with a first inclined plate 31. The first inclined plate 31 is provided at an angle with respect to the axial direction of the reinforcing member and is formed to be parallel to the first end plate 2b1. Similarly, the joining member 3 is provided with a second inclined plate 32 that is formed parallel to the second end plate 2b2.

[0030] The first and second inclined plates 31 and 32 are connected at their upper edges (upper ends in Figure 1) to form a mountain shape. A connecting base member 33 is provided between the lower edges corresponding to the bases of the first and second inclined plates 31 and 32, extending along the X-axis direction. The connecting base member 33 is formed, for example, from a long plate of a predetermined width, made of iron. The lower edges of the first and second inclined plates 31 and 32 and the connecting base member 33 are joined, for example, by welding.

[0031] A vertical member 34 is provided between the top of the first and second inclined plates 31 and 32, where their upper edges are connected, and the joining base member 33, so as to form a perpendicular line from the top. The tip (top) of the vertical member 34 is provided with joining tops 34a on both sides, where inclined surfaces that follow the inclination of the first and second inclined plates 31 and 32 are aligned in the X-axis direction. The joining tops 34a of the vertical member 34 and the upper edges of the first and second inclined plates 31 and 32 are joined, for example, by welding. The lower end of the vertical member 34 and the joining base member 33 are joined, for example, by welding.

[0032] The first and second inclined plates 31 and 32 have elongated holes LH formed in them, with the major axis running along the direction in which the first and second inclined plates 31 and 32 extend. The major axis of the elongated hole LH is formed along the direction in which the first inclined plate 31 extends, and the threaded portion of the bolt B inserted through the through hole SH passes through the elongated hole LH so as to be movable in the direction of the major axis, and is screwed into the nut N after passing through the through hole SH.

[0033] (Assembling method) The assembly of the connecting structure 1 involves shifting the first end plate 2b1 of the first joined member 21 relative to the first inclined plate 31 of the joining member 3 along the direction in which the first inclined plate 31 extends. Similarly, the second end plate 2b2 of the second joined member 22 relative to the second inclined plate 32 along the direction in which the first inclined plate 31 extends. This adjusts the distance between the first reinforcing main member 23 and the second reinforcing main member 24, which are connected by the connecting structure 1.

[0034] Next, bolt B is passed through the elongated hole LH of the first inclined plate 31 and inserted through the through hole SH of the first end plate 2b1, so that the threaded portion of bolt B protrudes from the first end plate 2b1.

[0035] Next, nut N is screwed onto the threaded portion of bolt B, and nut N is screwed in to fasten bolt B and nut N together. Tasks such as screwing in bolt B and tightening nut N are performed using an electric impact wrench EIW, as shown in Figure 2. In particular, when tightening nut N, a cylindrical jig J attached to the tip of the electric impact wrench EIW is passed through the jig through hole JTH. Using the jig through hole JTH in this way allows the work to be performed quickly and safely.

[0036] As is clear from the above description of the assembly method, in the reinforcing member connecting structure 1 of the present invention, the jig J is passed through the jig hole JTH and the bolt B and nut N are fastened. In this way, by using the pre-formed jig through-hole JTH, the bolt B and nut N can be fastened using the jig J, allowing for quick and safe assembly work.

[0037] Furthermore, in the connecting structure 1 of the present invention, the first end plate 2b1 is shifted relative to the first inclined plate 31 along the direction in which the first inclined plate 31 extends, thereby adjusting the distance between the first reinforcing main member 23 and other members. This allows for quick and safe adjustment of the length of the reinforcing member.

[0038] (Method of use) For example, as shown in Figure 4, the connecting structure 1 is used as a reinforcing member for the brace BR. Pin gripping parts PGS are provided at both ends of the brace BR, and it is connected to connecting pins (not shown) provided on the H-shaped steel pile (not shown). The connecting structure 1 is provided between the first reinforcing main member 23 and the second reinforcing main member 24. In the connecting structure 1, the brace BR can be adjusted within a length range of L1 to L2 by shifting the first joined member 21 and the second joined member 22 relative to the connecting member 3.

[0039] As is clear from the above description, the connecting structure 1 of the reinforcing member in this embodiment is a connecting structure 1 that connects a first reinforcing main member 23 constituting a reinforcing member (brace) to another member (second reinforcing main member 24), and the connecting structure 1 comprises a first joined member 21 connected to the first reinforcing main member 23 and a joining member 3 connected to the other member (second reinforcing main member 24), the joining member 3 comprises a first inclined plate 31, and the first inclined plate 31 is the axis on which the reinforcing member extends The first joined member 21 is inclined with respect to the direction, and comprises a first connecting end 2a1 connected to the first reinforcing main member 23, a first reinforcing plate 2c1 whose base end (the left end in Figure 1) is connected to the first connecting end 2a1, and a first end plate 2b1 whose base end (the left end in Figure 1) is connected to the first connecting end 2a1, and whose tip (the right end in Figure 1) is connected to the tip (the left end in Figure 1) of the first reinforcing plate 2c1.

[0040] Furthermore, the first end plate 2b1 is inclined parallel to the first inclined plate 31, and the first end plate 2b1 has a plurality of through holes SH formed therein, which are spaced apart along the direction in which the first end plate 2b1 extends. Furthermore, the first reinforcing plate 2c1 extends along the axial direction, and a jig through-hole JTH, which is larger in diameter than the through-hole SH, is formed in the first reinforcing plate 2c1, coaxially with the through-hole SH. An elongated hole LH is formed in the first inclined plate 31, and the elongated hole LH has a major axis that runs in the direction in which the first inclined plate 31 extends. The threaded portion of the bolt B inserted through the through-hole SH passes through the elongated hole LH so as to be movable in the major axis direction and is screwed into the nut N.

[0041] According to this, the bolt B screwed into the first end plate 2b1 can move along the long axis direction of the elongated hole LH formed in the first inclined plate 31. In other words, the first end plate 2b1 and the first inclined plate 31 can slide relative to each other along their contact surfaces.

[0042] This allows the distance between the first connecting end 2a1 and other members, in other words, the length of the reinforcing member, to be adjusted. Then, by fastening a bolt B or nut N, the first reinforcing main member 23 can be fixed to the connecting member 3 at the adjusted position. When fastening with a bolt B or nut N, for example, a cylindrical jig J attached to the tip of an electric impact wrench EIW is passed through the jig through-hole JTH. By fastening with the jig J by passing it through the jig through-hole JTH in this way, the work can be performed quickly and safely.

[0043] Furthermore, the connecting structure 1 of this embodiment is a connecting structure 1 that connects a first reinforcing main member 23 and a second reinforcing main member 24 that constitute a reinforcing member, and the connecting structure 1 further comprises a second joined member 22 that is connected to the second reinforcing main member 24, and the connecting member 3 further comprises a second inclined plate 32 that is inclined with respect to the axial direction in which the reinforcing member extends, and the second joined member 22 comprises a second connecting end 2a2 that is connected to the second reinforcing main member 24, a second reinforcing plate 2c2 whose base end (right end in Figure 1) is connected to the second connecting end 2a2, and a second end plate 2b2 whose base end (right end in Figure 1) is connected to the second connecting end 2a2 and whose tip end (left end in Figure 1) is connected to the tip end (left end in Figure 1) of the second reinforcing plate 2c2.

[0044] Furthermore, the second end plate 2b2 is parallel to the second inclined plate 32 and inclined with respect to the axial direction, and the second end plate 2b2 has a plurality of through holes SH formed therein, which are spaced apart along the direction in which the second end plate 2b2 extends. The second reinforcing plate 2c2 extends along the axial direction, and a jig through-hole JTH, which is larger in diameter than the through-hole SH, is formed in the second reinforcing plate 2c2 coaxially with the through-hole SH. The second inclined plate 32 has an elongated hole LH formed therein, and the elongated hole LH has a major axis that runs in the direction in which the second inclined plate 32 extends. The threaded portion of bolt B, which is inserted through the through hole SH, passes through the elongated hole LH in the longitudinal direction so as to be freely movable and is screwed onto nut N.

[0045] According to this, the length of the reinforcing member can be adjusted by adjusting the distance between the first and second reinforcing main members 23 and 24 in the axial direction of the reinforcing member. When fastening with bolts B or nuts N, for example, a cylindrical jig J attached to the tip of an electric impact wrench EIW is passed through the jig through-hole JTH. By fastening with the jig J by passing it through the jig through-hole JTH in this way, the work can be performed quickly and safely.

[0046] In this embodiment, the connecting structure 1 is a mountain-shaped member in which the upper edge of the first inclined plate 31 and the upper edge of the second inclined plate 32 are connected. According to this, the connecting member 3 forms a truss structure, and an extremely strong connecting structure can be easily formed against compressive or tensile loads applied to the reinforcing member.

[0047] (Another example 1) As shown in Figure 3, in the connecting structure of another example 1 of the present invention, reinforcing plates 4 are fixed to both side edges of the first reinforcing plate 2c1 and both side edges of the first end plate 2b1. According to this, an extremely strong connecting structure can be formed that does not deform under compressive or tensile loads applied between the first reinforcing plate 2c1 and the first end plate 2b1.

[0048] (Another example 2) As shown in Figure 3, the connecting structure of Another Example 2 of the present invention includes a guide portion 4a that protrudes from the first end plate 2b1 of the reinforcing backing plate 4 of Another Example 1, and the guide portion 4a slides against the side edge of the first inclined plate 31. According to this, the first end plate 2b1 moves smoothly along the first inclined plate 31 by the guide portion 4a, allowing the reinforcing member to extend and retract smoothly.

[0049] In the above embodiment, the through holes SH were arranged in a single row of three in the first end plate 2b1, but this is not the only option. For example, as shown in Figure 3, they may be arranged in two rows of three each. Similarly, the elongated holes LH may also be made into two rows of elongated holes LH. Furthermore, the elongated holes LH are not limited to those formed continuously in the direction in which the first inclined plate 31 extends, as in the embodiment. For example, the elongated holes may be separated for each bolt B through which they are inserted.

[0050] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a connecting structure 1 is provided between the first reinforcing main member 23 and the second reinforcing main member 24, but the invention is not limited to this. For example, as shown in Figure 5, the reinforcing main member 23 may be connected to the upper member to be joined 21u, and the lower member to be joined 21d may be connected to a connecting pin JP connected to a fixing band FB installed around the H-shaped steel pile SP at an intermediate position. In this case, the fixing band FB and the connecting pin JP correspond to "other members".

[0051] Furthermore, although the joining member 3 is shown with two inclined plates, a first inclined plate 31 and a second inclined plate 32, it is not limited to this, and for example, there may be only one inclined plate. In this case, for example, the member to be joined is connected to the first reinforcing main member, and the joining member is connected to the second reinforcing main member.

[0052] This invention is not limited in any way to the descriptions of embodiments and examples of the invention described above. Various modifications are also included in this invention, provided that they do not depart from the scope of the claims and are easily conceivable by those skilled in the art.
